Group Management

Basics

Group Ambassadors is a group management delegation app. It allows Jira administrators to nominate group ambassadors who are able to locally manage groups within Jira, without being given administrative privileges.

Here are a few definitions and some vocabulary as used in this guide:

• Ambassador: an ambassador is a group manager who is not an administrator of Jira.

• Nested groups: Nested groups is a feature offered in some user directories in Jira (e.g. the embedded crowd directory) which allows groups to contains user and groups as members. This is useful for permissions inheritance. (Learn more about Nested Groups.)

• Indirect member(s): indirect membership of groups happens when nested groups are enabled. An indirect member is someone who is not a direct member of a group but inheriting the membership from a subgroup. For instance, if a group called "IT Department" contains many subgroups, one of which being called "DevOps", all members of DevOps will be indirect members of "IT Department".
